Nathalie Goulet (French pronunciation: [natali ɡulɛ]; née Milsztein, 24 May 1958) is a French lawyer and politician who has served as a Senator for Orne since 2007, when she succeeded her husband Daniel Goulet as his substitute following his death. She is a member of the Union of Democrats and Independents (UDI) and sits with the Centrist Union group.
In the Senate, she is a member of the Committee on Finance. Goulet is active on a number of foreign policy issues, which has led to her being spied upon by Qatar,[1] as RFI noted she is a "vocal critic of Qatar for allegedly financing Islamic terrorism".[2]
Biography
[edit]Family and private life
[edit]Milsztein comes from a Jewish family. Her father's family was deported during the Vel d'Hiv round-up in 1942, but her father survived.[3]
A companion of Orne RPR senator Daniel Goulet (1928-2007), she became his parliamentary assistant in 1999,[4] before deputising for him from September 23, 2001. She married him in 2004.
Education and professional career
[edit]After studying law, Nathalie Milsztein joined the Paris Bar.
Disbarred in January 2000 by the Paris Bar Council for serious breaches of professional ethics, a decision upheld on appeal in 2006,[5] she lodged an appeal in cassation[6] and was re-admitted to the Paris Bar in 2011. In December 2011, she applied for and obtained her omission.[7]
In 2014, on her declaration of interests to the Haute Autorité pour la transparence de la vie publique, she declares that she no longer has any income as a lawyer and does not engage in any ancillary activities.[8]
